Appears to be stronger this year , Rudiger twice his size but he had to revert to fouling him at every opportunity , you can never accuse Jesus of not giving 100% he does'nt know how to . He got rewarded for his hard work today , before the game i thought Mahrez would have played on the right , but Pep got it right again he wanted Jesus's industry to help the press.
 
Another assist. Hes making the rigjt spot his own. if we can find a middle man, him on the right ans foden left is dynamite.
 
Top performance, worked very hard, assisted the 1st goal and helped for the 2nd as well.
 
He is doing great on the right side, but I think he is more needed as a center forward. I understand he wants to play on the wing but until we have a striker he is the best we got.

spot on. say what you will about his finishing, but the guy can hold the ball up top with his strenth and skill like no one else on the team can.
 
Brilliant again. Completely nullified Robertson as a threat going forward which rarely happens, offered the best threat in behind until sterling came on, kept the ball well, good dribbling, superb assist for the foden equaliser. Can't ask for more from him right now, he's doing everything to make our system work and getting numbers too. Feel like he's only going to get better on the right. he would be starting every single game for me right now unless he requires rest. Currently our best option in two positions.
 
Not everything came off for him today, especially first half. But overall a really strong and committed performance. He had a fantastic battle with Robertson all game, and Robertson was Liverpool’s best player for the most part today.

Jesus grew into that battle, mind. He was a bit soft with Robertson to start the game and was a bit whiny with the ref about Robertson just being committed. But Jesus gave him it right back second half (reckon he was spoken to at half time by the coaching staff) and he was great second half.
 
Thought he was immense against the Dippers kept Robertson occupied for ninety minutes and he stopped the Dipper playing his usual offensive game , his work rate is as good as any in the team and unlucky to have his last minute volley blocked by the jock , he deserved a goal today.
 
If Brexit was a facial expression it would be jesus after he's been wronged for the 400th time!! Haha!
 
Reminds me of when we moved Kolarov to centre-back. Suddenly looks like he's actually a winger we've been wrongly playing out of position the whole time.

He's contributing to more goals than he ever did when he played closer to it, haha.

7 goal contributions in 523 minutes is fantastic.

Nearly as good as his goal contribution rate that first half-season he joined us - 7 goals and 4 assists in 651 league minutes, one contribution every 59 minutes!

It really is. What's more, you'd be hard-pressed to find a wide forward who contributes goals/assists at a better rate than Jesus and works as hard off the ball as Jesus.

Although funnily enough, if there is another one we may have him in Foden. I think having Jesus, Foden, Bernardo, Rodri/Fernandinho, KDB (when fully fit), Cancelo, Walker, Laporte, and Dias all in the same team is really transformative to our pressing game.
